install: reenable matchpathcon-related code

The underlying performance problem is being dealt with in Automake
by limiting the number of install invocations, and in SELinux with
incremental changes as well as a potential new implementation.
* src/Makefile.am (ginstall_CPPFLAGS) [ENABLE_MATCHPATHCON]: Define.
* src/install.c [ENABLE_WHEN_MATCHPATHCON_IS_MORE_EFFICIENT]:
Rename to ENABLE_MATCHPATHCON.
* NEWS: mention this change
